The show is over folks and the winners of the 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards have been announced. The night was full of surprises including James Cameron’s complete domination for Best Director and Best Motion Picture Drama for Avatar. I guess The Hollywood Foreign Press aren’t that fond of The Hurt Locker. Without further ado, check out the rest of the winners from this evening’s ceremony…
The legendary James Cameron wins Best Picture for his box office phenomenon Avatar, which allegedly took three decades to fully develop. The picture made 73 million dollars opening weekend, and has remained number one at the US box office since its December release!

One of Hollywood’s favorite seasoned actors, Jeff Bridges, snags the award for Best Actor in a Drama for his role in Crazy Heart.
